Ceramic - Speckled Sauce Pot

Revered as gift from the gods, salmon is an essential part of Ainu cuisine. The speckled glaze is intended to capture the mist over the grey waters of the Tokachi river in Hokkaido. This is a rendition of a much loved pattern of Japanese tableware.

Practical and stylish for serving a jolly nice jam, some homemade dip or a salad dressing. It even comes with a little spoon!

Dimensions: 8cm height, 9.5cm wide; 250ml capacity
